Can my sons in-laws witness my will?

Thanks for all the advice everyone, much appreciated. To be honest she's undergoing chemotherapy and lost her hair so doesn't really want to see anyone at the moment so i was thinking of getting my inlaws to witness it to save any hassle. We were going to use the "Which" online will which apparently is checked over by a solicitor or will writer, so semi DIY? I did a DIY will for my dad and I was executor which all went smoothly but obviously everything was left to my mum so very straight forward. This would be straight forward too with everything split 3 ways between her children. i wouldn't envisage any problems, but i can sort truely independent witnesses as everyone seems to feel the same way in that respect.

Given her current health situation, isn't there arguably a greater need for a properly witnessed, and professionally drafted will?
